I came in on this (neat) discussion a tad late, so forgive me if this
question has already been answered.

I have heard apocryphal stories about the existence of a "surf server"
somewhere on the Left Coast. (UCSD maybe?) The tale describes a wave
height/frequency sensor with a line in to a PDP-11 or somesuch, with a
finger server on the internet.

Can anyone confirm this beastie's existence? Inquiring minds want to know.
